Don't Hold Your Breath - Dave Dobbyn[00:00:01]
The biggest companies in the world in conference[00:00:16]
In Geneva by the lakeside[00:00:18]
Warm smiles friendly faces- Peace proposals in briefcases[00:00:23]
Lines of borders on the map on the table[00:00:30]
They replace with dotted lines[00:00:33]
We read about it in free newspapers[00:00:37]
Then they started to unwind[00:00:39]
Within a week all the refugees of the world[00:00:44]
Lived in five-star hotels[00:00:47]
Twenty-four hour room-service- free telephone- no bills[00:00:51]
And the trucks got through to Africa- into Eritrea and the Sudan[00:00:58]
Laden down with western surplus- it served it's purpose[00:01:05]
Eased a conscience or two[00:01:09]
She said don't fool me know- I believe every word that you said[00:01:14]
Don't hold out while it's sounding so good[00:01:22]
Don't fool around when what you believe could come true[00:01:29]
Don't hold your breath Don't hold your breath[00:01:36]
US congress voted Texas back to the Mexicans[00:01:54]
California to the Jews[00:01:58]
Huge tracts of Arizona to the Navajo[00:02:01]
Nevada to the Sioux[00:02:04]
The twelve tribes of Israel got down in Gaza for the last time[00:02:08]
By the time they got to the West Bank- baby- it was Palestine[00:02:15]
The French stopped nuking the Pacific[00:02:28]
They planted trees in Brazil instead[00:02:31]
And they made Antarctica a world park- baby[00:02:35]
Plenty of ozone above your head[00:02:38]
She said don't fool me know- I believe every word that you said[00:02:41]
Don't hold out while it's sounding so good darling[00:02:48]
Don't fool around when what you believe could come true[00:02:56]
Don't hold your breath- Don't hold your breath[00:03:03]
All my innocence long since turned to dust[00:03:18]
I carry my cynicsm- like a tourist with a camera[00:03:24]
Yeah You and me my sweet darling- we'll grow old with Grace[00:03:32]
And our children grow up in the valley of Love[00:03:41]
They'll be so damn well educated- so well informed[00:03:48]
And we'll sit back with our arms folded[00:03:55]
Watch 'em change it Watch it burn [00:03:58]
She said don't fool me now- I believe every word that you said[00:04:01]
Don't hold your breath- Don't hold your breath[00:04:09]
Don't hold your breath- Don't hold your breath[00:04:23]
